Good colorful house plants/flowers to grow in Michigan...they would most likely get medium sun.?

I need ideas for various colorful flowers that I can grow inside in small-medium pots.





Medium sun.





We live in Michigan.





We have air conditioning.





Plants are kind of known for dying in our house but Ive been into trying to have a green thumb...so I am getting better at keeping stuff alive.





Any suggestions?

Hoya are beautiful and very hard to kill! Rex begonia's leaves are as beautiful as any flower and you will not believe the variety! A clivia only blooms sporadically, but is well worth the wait. Christmas cactus is really easy to grow and will bloom when everything else is dormant. You have too much sun for African violets. You can try caladium indoors. Peace lilies are also nice, and anthurium.

Mine is as tall as me! (5'6")





Your heat in the winter and AC in the Summer is drying out your plants. If weather permits, outside is best. In the Winter, you can put your plants in a sunny area with a Humidifier, and Mist them every other day. Be sure to water weekly.
